Another letter sent by one of our members.
Dear Senator,
Social Security began in 1935. It is mandatory, we can't opt out. (payroll tax collections will begin to exceed benefits paid in 2016 and it will go bankrupt by 2040 or sooner)
Medicare starts in 1965. Our seniors are now dependant on it. AARP gladly fills in the gaps with their insurance plan (No conflict of interest there? Anyone wonder why they are so tickled to support a bill that will cut Medicare Advantage benefits by $500 BILLION?)
Americans were promised Medicare would cost 12 billion by 1990 - it was 90 billion. It is now $468 billion.
Now we are handed a 1.2 trillion dollar (we all know it will be more) Health-care bill that unconstitutionally forces us to buy insurance or face fines and jail-time. Yet, Insurance companies are still not allowed to compete across state lines, and there is NO tort-reform. It appears to me that you don't really want insurance companies to compete and bring costs down or even to survive. It appears to me that the Progressive liberals in this nation want them to fail so we can have a single-payer system in this country. I get it. But this is not what we want.
This is not what Americans want, even if it is what YOU want. You are there to represent us. Remember?
I am asking that you would give us a bill that allows "across state lines" competition, tort reform, lower premiums, and guarantee affordable insurance even with pre-existing conditions.
Please do not allow another 111 federal agencies to be formed because of a government, public option.
Please do NOT force us to buy health insurance or be fined or jailed.
Please do not hand us another big-government-run, money-sucking, personally invasive, inefficient department in the name of helping those who need insurance.
Please let the President find his "legacy" some other way, besides giving us a bill that most college graduates cannot understand, and few representatives can even read.
Thankyou, Debbie K.
